… But Crawley Town contest ends in 1-1 draw

GUYANA’S Senior Men’s National team forward, Callum Harriott found the net for Colchester United, during their 1-1 draw against Crawley Town in the side’s latest English Football League Two action on Tuesday.

Harriott, who made his debut for Guyana in March of 2019, scored a ‘wonder goal’; a rocket from way outside the 18, in the 13th-minute to give Colchester the lead in the League Two clash.

However, his celebration was short-lived, since seven minutes later, Jordan Tunnicliffe scored from close-range at the JobServe Community Stadium as the two sides had to settle for shared points.

After the game, Harriott said, “It was a good goal but I feel like I could have done more and I feel like the team could have had more. For me personally, I feel I need more. Everyone was obviously disappointed about that game but we have to look forward. There are many positives that we can take out of the (Crawley) game.”

The Golden Jaguars player noted his disappointment also, at not getting three points, but noted, however, “It’s a long season but we want to get up on the top of that table and stay there.”

Harriott’s goal was his fourth of the season for Colchester United, who sit 12th on the 24-team table, headed by Newport County, with five wins, six draws and three defeats from 14 outings so far.

Since his debut for Guyana at the National Track and Field Centre, at Leonora, against Harriott has featured seven times for the Golden Jaguars, scoring once when Guyana defeated Aruba 4-2.

The 26-year-old is expected to don the Guyana colours in the coming months in the Qatar World Cup Qualifiers and the CONCACAF Gold Cup Qualifiers in the U.S. (Rawle Toney)
